| 0:10.0 | My husband does well financially, but he tends to be a bit controlling with money. |
| 0:15.0 | He's always taken the inheritance I've received each year and invested it in the stock market. |
| 0:19.6 | Recently, I received about 50K, which will |
| 0:21.9 | probably be the last bit of inheritance for a while. Since I'm a stay-at-home mom with no |
